Where are we today ?
What a wonderful bright sunny morning with pretty decent temps too. A few walkabouts after computing and coffees then we headed of to the Pinery Fleamarket in Grand Bend, with Gail and Randy, first time this year. Of all the Flea markets we have been to in Canada and the USA, this has to be our favourite. And we will be here almost every Sunday we are in the area.
The setting in the bush is wonderful and so many vendors. We have gotten to know many of them to. Only 20 minutes away and just nice to wander about the trees and check out to see if there is anything that we might need or want. Mostly disposable things like food and books.

lotsa flowers |
cute baby swing |
good deals on hats |
gumball machines |
Motorcycle parking |
Suzie stopped by her favourite book vendor John. He does a great deal for exchanging. We brought in 15 used books and she gets 10 free. Thats a good deal. At a few other vendors we picked up some books making our take today a total of 15. So we be good for a while longer.
todays, pick of books |
preparing the garden |
Then just puttered around for a while enjoying this wonderful weather we are having. Too bad about all the people that cancelled their reservations because the weather guessers predicted rain most of the weekend.
Enjoying our books for while was wonderful. Then friends Rich and MaryLou stopped by to chat and catch up for Happy hour along with Emile and Monique, perfect weather for it too, nice and sunny and not too warm.
This tiny dog Max stopped by for a visit, could fit in you hand, so cute |
yep hit the spot |
Would like to thank you for taking the time to read, and really hope your rainy weekend was as nice as ours.

ReplyDeleteyou're
Deleteyep you did !! Haha..
DeleteYou been getting warmer weather back home than we have in Goshen.
ReplyDeleteBe Safe and Enjoy!
It's about time.
It has been perfect here.
DeleteLotsa nice stuff at the flea market. Good way to pass the time too.
ReplyDeleteWe always enjoy this market changes all the time.
DeleteThat certainly looks like one huge flea market. They sure are fun to walk through as long as you keep your wallet in your pocket. You have to be careful what you buy or you won't have much room left in your RV for the two of you. Looks like the your weather did trade places with our weather. Hopefully, it'll change back soon for us.
ReplyDeleteOur rule is one in and one out or consumable items only. We are enjoying the weather.
DeleteIt is cute and they had adults ones too, the pic was blurry though.
ReplyDeleteI can see why you love that flea market...loved the flowers. I noticed on the sign...fresh asparagus! I expect to see so e cooking on the grill!
ReplyDeleteWell I did not like the looks of the asparagus,and at $5.00 a lb, not today.
DeleteI always thought Paul and I read a lot, but you two have us beat hands down! We haven't had much time for reading since we arrived in Ohio. Hope to change that once we hit the road again in the fall. Keep enjoying the good life.
ReplyDeleteWe don't have a house to tie us down, so we can make time year round.
DeleteLooks like Suzie and Bev read the same type of books. We need to go to a place like that and sell some of our stuff.
ReplyDeleteThey are all good books, and I even read a few of the good ones too.
DeleteNIce that the weather cooperated. Not much funny going to the market in the rain. While in Mexico I picked up 2 books in the exchange and have since read another by this author, I order get them from the library when we are home. Anyway I think you might enjoy the books written by Brad Meltzer.
ReplyDeleteWe have read a couple of his books according to Suzie's list, pretty good too.
